The Netherlands’ government is reportedly planning to confiscate farms from Dutch farmers and use the expropriated agricultural land for asylum seekers, according to leaked documents.
Dutch opposition leader Geert Wilders released a bombshell letter showing the government wants to use the confiscated farmland for asylum centers.
The news comes as thousands of Dutch farmers have been rising up in protest against new climate laws that threaten to put many of them out of business.
Over the weekend, around 40,000 Dutch farmers brought traffic to a standstill in the Netherlands by blocking major highways with their vehicles.
They blocked around 20 food distribution centers with trucks and tractors.
On Wednesday, the protests reached Dam Square in Amsterdam and the seat of government in The Hague.
Meanwhile, the airport in Groningen was blockaded by demonstrators.
German farmers also joined the protests in Heerenberg near the Dutch-German border.
In an incident near the blockaded food distribution center at Heerenveen in Friesland, police officers shot at a 16-year-old who was driving a tractor.
The teen, a boy named Jouke, and two other protestors were arrested on suspicion of “attempted manslaughter.”
The arrest led to an angry crowd gathering in front of the police station in Leeuwarden.
All three have now been released without charge.
Amid the protests, opposition leader Geert Wilders published a letter from the provincial government of Flevoland.
It states that the government will set up “a registration center for asylum seekers” on agricultural land expropriated by the devastating nitrogen laws.
